Tachometer
The tachometer displays the engine speed in rev­
olutions per minute (RP/11).
The beginning of the red zone in the tachometer
indicates the maximum permitted engine speed
for all gears once the engine has been broken in
and when it is warm. You should select the "D/
S" (Drive) selector lever position or take your foot
off the accelerator pedal before reaching this
area .
It is best to avoid high engine speeds, even when
driving in tiptronic mode
q page 94 .
Vehicles with plug-in hybrid drive* have a power
meter instead of a tachometer. A digital tachom­
eter can be displayed in the driver information
system
q page 29.
(D Note
The needle in the tachometer(I) c::;,page 10,
fig . 3
may only be in the red area of the gauge
for a short time or there is a r isk of damaging
the engine.
@ For the sake of the environment
Upshifting early helps you to save fuel and re­
duce operating noise.
